Destiny 2 players are encountering a mysterious item, the Curio of the Nine, within the newly released Heresy episode. This enigmatic token, described as bearing "markings of the Nine," is causing some confusion among players.
The Enigmatic Curio of the Nine
The Curio's in-game description hints at its connection to the Nine, the mysterious entities inhabiting Unknown Space. However, its purpose remains undisclosed, with the Nine themselves stating, "The Nine do not wish to reveal the purpose for seeking your favor yet…" This secrecy leaves players searching for answers online.
Can You Discard the Curio?
Yes, the Curio of the Nine can be discarded. However, the game warns that this action is irreversible: "While this item does not currently appear to have a purpose, guard it with your life – as it cannot be reacquired if discarded." Given the Nine's enigmatic nature, it's advisable to retain the Curio, at least for the duration of the Heresy episode.
The Duration of Heresy
Launched on February 4th, 2025, Heresy is structured into three Acts, each spanning several weeks. Based on previous episodes, Heresy is expected to conclude sometime in the summer of 2025, though a precise end date hasn't been announced. A fall conclusion is possible, but less likely.
In short, the Curio of the Nine's function remains a mystery for now. Holding onto it seems prudent until further information is revealed within the Heresy narrative. For more Destiny 2 content, check out the 2025 Festival of the Lost skins and voting details.
Destiny 2 is available on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC.
